How to become a locksmith in your country- Any restrictions?
I am curious about the way to become a locksmith in USA, Canada or UK.
I live in Switzerland and there are no specifics way to become a locksmith, there is no specifics schools/diplomas. Anyone here can say I'm a locksmith and there is lot of abuses and scams because of this. There is a diploma called CFC "constructeur metallique" meaning "metal worker" but the locksmithing part of the diploma is very small, see https://www.serrurier-romand.ch/comment-devenir-serrurier-suisse/.
I know it is a bit different in France, they have specials diplomas and schools, for example the famous "compagnions du devoir". Customers have a way to find good locksmiths, they just have to ask for the specific diploma.
How does it works in your country, is this totally liberal or there are some laws, diplomas or other protections for the customers ?
